Re: Fuel line ???

That hose will work, but I would keep it to a minimum, at flex points between steel hard line. I wouldn't run it the full length.

Re: Fuel line ???

agreed...it'll work, but you should only need a few feet....the 25ft roll your looking at foreshadows something ominous.

Re: Fuel line ???

Back in my youth, I almost lost my C-10 because of rubber fuel line.

Stainless braided or hard line isn't that much more work/cost.

Re: Fuel line ???

just use it for the joints.....I have a couple 6" chunks that join the tank to the stock lines and pump, and then at the filter/reg...the rest after the regulator to the fuel rails is braided -6an...
